Hi,
<br>I ended up getting one extra ultrasonic module from Parallax to get a
volume discount- so if you're interested I have one spare
$25US+$2tax/ship=$27us=~$33nzd. The Parallax modules combine the sensor
with logic to drive the speaker and analyze the echo- this makes it
really easy to add distance measurement to your robot- just 3 pins, gnd,
5v, and clk/measurement.
